Shayna Baszler Isn’t Worried About The Pressure From Competing With AEW

All Elite Wrestling: Dynamite will debut next week and the Wednesday Night Wars will begin. Shayna Baszler isn’t worried about it as she walks into the situation as NXT Women’s Champion.

Shayna Baszler is set to defend the NXT Women’s Title against Candice LeRae. It will be a fierce contest, but Baszler has been through battles before.

While speaking to Sports Illustrated, Baszler said she’s a pressure player. This competition from AEW isn’t going to change her mission to get the job done.

“I’m a pressure player. Put me in the game at the critical time and I’ll get the job done. It’s something I’ve always done, and that won’t change when I’m wrestling on live TV.”

“Our locker room at NXT is very proud of the work we do. Going into Wednesdays on USA, you’ll see us outdo ourselves every week.”

Shayna Baszler could also be entering into a new phase in her WWE career in more ways than one. She is reportedly at the cusp of being called up to the main roster. Until that happens she will continue to represent NXT and continue as a fighting champion.
